Faith can have many layers
The weathered wood, glass-free windows, sunlight on the floor, the distant mesa, all layered up.

Tire and jet at abandoned church
Me (speaking in general terms about this place, which has been photographed a billion times): It’ll be a big service to the photographic world when that place finally falls down.
Me (approaching Taiban, New Mexico, on a recent trip): We HAVE to stop. I need to take some pictures.
Lesson: I cannot be trusted.

Not Random. Probably.
There are 64,331 interments in the National Cemetery in Santa Fe. I chose this one, more or less randomly, to photograph because I could get a good angle on the graves and flags. And the desiccated rose was nice, too.
And then it got weird: turns out that Kay Wiest was a photographer: the Kay Wiest Negative Collection (4,000 4×5 negatives) documents her work as a staff photographer at the Institute of American Indian Arts from 1964-1971.
So, maybe it wasn’t a random selection, after all.

…in dry summer
The news was all bad – accusations and firing people and dry summers and bears.
But on the other hand, it was a long weekend in Santa Fe with friends and good food and laughter. And a lowrider show at the Plaza.
